The AgileAlliance is a non-profit
organization dedicated to promoting the concept of agile
software development and helping organizations adopt this
concept. The concept is outlined by the Manifesto for Agile
Software Development. The AgileAlliance germinated in the
fertilizer of the original AgileAlliance, a group of software
professionals that had developed and were practicing lightweight
approaches to software development. Responding to requests
for a more open, inclusive, and visible way for everyone to
participate, most of the founders of the AgileAlliance defined
and established the non-profit AgileAlliance. This organization
was designed to be lightweight, initially only consisting of a
board of directors, one administrator, and a set of bylaws. Just
like agile processes, all work and operations within the
AgileAlliance is intended to emerge from subsets of members that
self-organize into programs.

Scrum Methodology

The Scrum methodology of agile software
development marks a dramatic departure from waterfall management. In fact,
Scrum and other agile processes were inspired by its shortcomings. The Scrum
methodology emphasizes communication and collaboration, functioning
software, and the flexibility to adapt to emerging business realities — all
attributes that suffer in the rigidly ordered waterfall paradigm.
